Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers says Steven Gerrard's teammates need to do more to support him.
The Reds have to beat Basle at Anfield tomorrow if they are to keep their Champions League dream alive and the match has echoes of the game against Olympiacos in 2004.
It is exactly 10 years to the day when, with his side needing to win by two clear goals to make the knockout stages, Gerrard smashed home with four minutes to go to clinch a 3-1 victory.
"In terms of Steven, we can't be just reliant solely on him, this has to be about a team performance," said Rodgers.
"We need other players to step up to the mark, taking on responsibility and being a catalyst and not place it on his shoulders.
"There are few world class players around so when you are in a team that responsibility falls even more so on you but it has never been about that for us.
"For us to get a result tomorrow night we need for the team to be performing well and get a performance.
"This is a competition which has a great history here for Liverpool and the Olympiacos game was a part of that.
"It is an opportunity for the players now to qualify and make sure they write themselves into folklore by winning the game and ensuring they get into the next round - because that is the objective."
